Nisi Dominus frustra ...

It has begun! The builders may not have turned up, but on Monday morning after Mass the community celebrated undeterred the turning of the first sod and blessing of the site for our building extension (see earlier post.) In the words of the psalm, nisi Dominus frustra... Unless the Lord builds the house, in vain do the builders labour.
We concluded with the antiphon to St Dominic, O Lumen Ecclesiae. The pictures tell the story ...

'...Grant that the undertaking we begin today for your glory and our own well-being may progress day by day ...'

Domini canes - the dogs of the Lord. (Our faithful hound, DePorres, never misses a photo opportunity.)

The first sod!

Brothers Patrick, Osborne, Robert, Ignatius, Augustine, Martin (superior), Steven, Paul, Laurence, Godfrey and Joseph. (Bros. Nicholas and Edwin were taking photos!)

A good sprinkling with holy water as Bro. Godfrey looks on.
